those conflicts the loss CT the Federal
side was upward 800 men, as; IN at least

The other morning, as the Colonel
put on his overcoat to go out, his wife
calmly observed:
"You haven't been in luck lately"
s'ln luck! How?"
How much have you dropped on
poker in the last two weeks?"
He looked at her long time and
never attempted word in reply.
"You aren't sharp" she continued.
eff was going to play poker I'd play
to win. wouldn't pit myself against
old gamblers.
MADAM" said the Colonel, after q
painful silence, ''may be you know
some poker-player who has got more
cash than keenness. May be you dop'
"Well, there's-there's John, the
hired man." she stammered. John
has four hundred dollars laid up, and l
heard him talking about poker the
ether day. Why don't you play hime"
The Colonel went out without word.
When he reached the corner he
stopped, looked carefully around, and
presently turned down the side-street
and into the alley leading to his barn.
John was there engaged in his every
day duties.
''John," said the Colonel, ''some one,
was telling me that you played poker"
"Well, sir, I--ah-I won't do it any
more"
"Oh, it's no crime, John-no crime
but perhaps I'd better show you few
of the latest kinks in the game. don't
want any of these stable men fleeing
YOU"
Thanks, sir. I'll be thousand
times obliged"
Two hours later John entered the
house and placed in the hand of the
Colonel's wife package, and said:
There's one hundred and twenty
dollars-all he had-but he'll raise an
other hundred tomorrow"
When the Colonel came home to din
ner he seemed greatly preoccupied in
mind, and at the table he said:
Doesn't it seem to you that our John
is rather neglecting his work?'
''Why. no. He seems very atten-
tive"

A Pretty Metaphor.

The japanese have proved them
selves such apt learners that they are
already beginning to improve on the
methods of their instructors. To peo-
pie of their artistic temperament the
old European plan Of christening a
ship by breaking a bottle of wine
against her sides is distasteful; and so,
when lately name was given to II. l.
MS ship Katsuragi, an Imperial
Princess gently broke a fragile cage
against the steel plates and by so doing
liberated a pair of doves. Atfrst sight
the metaphor seems rather '.mixed"
but possibly an explanation may be
found for it in the fact that in the pop
ular Carbohydrates mythology doves
are occasionally metamorphosed into
hawks; and the emblem may there
fore have been intended to signify that,
though in piping times of peace the
Katsuragi would be as harmless as a
dove, she yet contained within herself
the potentially of hawk.-St. James
Gazette.

Silence Is Golden.

A. 7. Stewards Sunday dinners are
subjects of series of articles by an old
time New Yorker, who in his old age
runs to gossip of days lang syne. At
one dinner little episode occurred
which cost the man who made some
what pointed remark about fifty thou
sand dollars. An English banker was
invited by Stewart to his tables and the
millionaire poured out the blue seal.
The Englishman quaffed down what
there was of it at a gulp in a careless
manner, quite at contrast with the sol
emn style in which Stewart had poured
it out. "Ah, you have tasted this wine
before, " remarked the somewhat cha
grined American merchant. "Oh, yes, :"
remarked the English banker, land in
larger glasses Stewart smiled family
at the somewhat brusque remark, but
that Englishman did not smile when
Stewart dropped negotiations with his
clearinghouse then pending and trans
ferred his favors to a rival London
house.-N. Y. Graphic.
